Who’s Who

Rabbi Boruch Shlomo Cunin is the Director of West Coast Chabad-Lubavitch. He was sent to California with his wife, Rebbetzin Odel Miriam Cunin, by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Men-achem M. Schneerson in 1965 to develop educational, religious, and social outreach programs. With more than 200 community centers and dozens of schools, Chabad runs the largest network of educational and nonsectarian social services under Jewish auspices on the West Coast.

Rabbi Yosef Brod, a Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi, one of our lecturers for Pesach, was born and raised in Crown Heights, New York. Rabbi Brod has offered study classes and seminars for all ages, visited various hospitals, jails and state and federal prisons and served as a Chaplain. He has conducted community Seders in Los Angeles for over 35 years and has worked with Chabad all his life. For the last four years Rabbi Brod has been running the Running Springs Retreat Center in Running Springs, a non-profit organization, which offers Shabbatons and retreats for groups and families.

Rabbi Chay Amar believes The Tools for Success are in your grasp, his mantra “The Best of You”. “I am not here to force people to be religious, but what I am here to do is to give people the tools so they can grow and tap into themselves,’’ Amar says. “People are looking for inspiration. They want an energy that is greater than themselves.’’ Rabbi Amar regularly speaks around the world whether; England, France, Israel or South Florida the key his lectures is always to provide the tools we need to succeed in life, business and relationships. When Rabbi Amar is not inspir-ing the world he is brushing up on the five languages he speaks and spending time with his lovely wife and seven children in their home in Golden Beach, Florida.

Rabbi Eli Hecht is vice–president of the Rabbinical Alliance of America and past–president of the Rabbinical Council of California. He is the regional director of Chabad of South Bay in Lo-mita, CA which houses a synagogue, day school, nursery school and chaplaincy programs.

Dr. Dalia Hecht M.D. Associate Professor of Clinical Medicine UCLA

Rabbi Shlomo Bistritzky is the Chabad Shliach and founder of Chabad of Oak Park, California..

Rabbi Dovid and Rochel Smoller have been faculty members at the Chabad Hebrew Academy in S. Diego for the past 23 years. They have organized many programs during this time, including Shabbatons, trips to New York and Washington DC, and a traveling camp up the California Coast. The Smoller’s have also supervised Junior Congregation programs for many years and other youth programs. Rabbi and Mrs. Smoller have been involved with Jewish camping as directors of Camp Gan Israel in S. Diego since 1987. Their children have served as staff members all over the world, including Ukraine, Hamburg, Germany, Maryland, Chicago, and New York. Rabbi Smoller is a “scholar” on the website Askmoses.com, in his “spare” time.
